It is a nice place because of the activities for student life. Career connect could be better though.
Excellent :)
I like the campus and the people I don't like the unis investments in the weapons industry
Some things are quite expensive.
Great opportunities unfortunate about the budget cuts
Amazing staff, lecturers, professors, and student support
The community feel and the SU are really amazing. Really enjoyed the feeling in endcliffe/ ranmoor student village at the start of university. Becoming involved in the department through societies was really amazing. The worst thing is potentially funding issues that affect the department programming.
Lovely library’s, Worst experience the walk the lectures, easier access to public transport
Best - flavours takeaway Worst - laundry
Better architecture the buildings look dead asf.
Bar one is not good for dancing, needs to become a bit more packed
Sheffield is a great place to live, the students union can be an absolute pain when you are a society committee member though.
Best Aspect - a very proactive and awesome student union with numerous societies that provide a full and diverse student experience Worst Aspect - the campus is very spread out
Great location, and a city campus feel! I truly feel at home here, everything is close by and great support by the best ranked SU.. This is especially important as I am an international student. The only thing I don't like about Sheffield are the hills!
It's a really good location to be in, and for the university in relation to the city it is well connected to the centre while still being in a slightly quieter place. The students' union also always has lots going on, and good club nights too. However they need to be more proactive in terms of fundraising and focusing on activism, as the students' voices need to be better represented.
Lovely campus and facilities. Really enjoying the course and I love being so close to the Peaks.


Would love a orientation of the SU when you join!
Cafe in Firth court. Also more exam help/guidance.
